Our service tech was Eric S. He was professional, courteous and appeared to have a thorough knowledge of our issues. We will request Eric again. We were very pleased with Bedell and will definately use there services again when needed.
Description of Work: We contacted the company for several plumbing issues we were experiencing. Our area experiences very high water pressure, that has been causing seals, etc. to go bad quickly. We had a device installed that would regulate the pressure and we are already reaping the benefits of that installation. We had a shower head that was leaking and we also had a leak under the kitchen sink. The shower head leak was resolved quickly and we could not produce a leak under the sink (go figure). We had requested that our outside spigots be rebuilt, but with the reduced water pressure decided to see if that was really needed.

Anyone that calls should ask for Jason Freeman. He's who came out to do the work for us. It was wonderful and effortless (what we hoped for!). He spent 2 hours in our crawlspace and just got it done!

I called Bedell Plumbing late Monday, 04/02/12. I asked Jay Bedell if he could have someone come out Tuesday to work on shower / tub fixtures to improve pressure and I asked for an estimate. Jay said he could have someone out Tuesday morning. Jay thought that I would be better off doing time & materials for the job than bid work. Jason arrived at 0815 Tuesday morning & proceeded to address presure problem. He installed an access panel in the wall behind the shower fixtures. He replaced the pipe from the shower fixtures down to the T-fitting where the sink line separates from the shower line. He pointed out that the T-fitting was corroded and had leaked. He recommended replacing the T-fitting & the cooragated iron pipe back through the basement living area to the next fitting (about 30 feet). Once that was done he tested it & we still had poor pressure. He removed the rough in valve & found it had sediment that was restricting water flow. He had a replacement valve that would fit & installed it. Once that was installed the pressure was great. He then removed old parts & cleaned-up the area. Jason was professional, friendly and communicated effectively. Jay is an effective communicator and scheduler. It took 5 hours @$105 an hour plus $225 in parts.
Description of Work: Resolve water pressure constraints from shower / bath fixtures.

He did pretty well. The price seemed a little high, but he was here for a while. He put me to work at times getting things that he needed. He was a good guy and he knew what he was doing, but it seemed as if he couldn't complete the job without my help.

We were very satisfied with Bedell Plumbing. We expected to replace both a sewage pump and waste valve at a minimum and ended up with just a diagnostic charge. There was every opportunity for the plumber to replace either item and did not do so. Bedell Plumbing came out the same day we called, didn't do unneeded work and didn't try to up sell anything. We will definitely use them again if we ever need work done on our plumbing in the future.
Description of Work: We had an issue with the basement sewage pump that we thought meant the pump needed to be replaced. We called Bedell Plumbing tease on reviews and coupon from Angie's List. When they arrived they discovered the float was stuck resulting in the pump malfunctioning, they freed the float and the pump worked. We also asked them to replace a valve on the sewage line but the plumber inspected the valve and reported it was in working order. He said he would replace it if we wanted but there was no reason to.

After water back-up resulted in an enormous amount of water damage in our home, we had contacted a plumbing company which we had used on several occasions. They initially quoted us one price, then continued to increase the costs because they kept finding additional problems. After it became clear that the other company couldn't /wouldn't give us an exact cost, we decided to get a second opinion. We call Beddell and explained what had happened. Over the phone, he was able to accurately diagnose the problem and tell us what needed to be done. He came out the same afternoon and was able to tell us exactly what needed to be done to fix the problem as well as the cost of the project. By the next day and a half, they were able to replace the main water line from our house. The arrived by 9 in morning and had the job completed by noon. They were very responsive and professional. We would use them again.

Very good job from start to finish. Professional and strong communication skills exhibited.
Description of Work: Since we had a leak in the basement from our water main cut off/on valve and our meter was in the basement it had to be converted to an outside meter, placed in the front yard. The water meter was removed completed; cutting the pipe and putting on a really simple cut/off on switch. Dug approximately 5-6 ft down in the front yard near the sidewalk, installed a new meter & lid. It was explained to us that this procedure would take approximately 4 hrs, that we would be without water, so we could make arrangements for bottled water during the procedure/installation. There were no surprises at all. Everyone had a professional approach and communication style with us. It was explained that the excavated dirt could not be placed back in the hole until the water company came out to inspect and approve the job. The following morning the workers appeared bright and early and were gone within an hour - job complete. We look forward to the soil settling back in place because there's quite a mound of dirt in the front yard. Were were very pleased with the job.

They came out late Friday afternoon to give me as estimate for the work, and provided a high and low estimate depending on what he found when he got into the job. Not knowing how long it would take, we decided they would come back Monday to complete it. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. Even though the old threads were destroyed (the higher end quote), it went quickly (due to his skill) and I was charged the lower end price. I've used Bedell for several years with all my plumbing needs and they are always courteous, responsive and competent; and I feel they are fair, cost-wise. I've referred them to friends and family and appreciate knowing where to confidently turn should a need arise.
Description of Work: Replaced 60 year old deteriorated galvanized kitchen drain in crawl space. The old threads were destroyed, so extra effort was involved in removing the old.

I was frustrated by slow response from roto-rooter so Ii called Bedell plumbing (identified on Angie's list) to receive an cost estimate and projection on when they could arrive to perform services. Jay Bedelll provided rate structure for weekends ($210 for first hour (opposed to $175 regular business hours)) and said he had someone on call available to respond immediately to our request. He said Jason would arrive within 90 minutes. I confirmed service and cancelled my request with roto-rooter. Jason arrived within 40 minutes. He proceeded to verify problem and identify access to main line outside the house. He hauled equipment and proceeded to work on clearing main drain. It was cleared within 15 minutes. We then flushed water for a few minutes to verify that the drain was cleared (opposed to just moving the blockage further down). Then jason removed all equipment, wrote-up bill for first hour of service and explained what he found causing blockage. All I had to do was provide power for Jason's equipment and execute clean-up - which included removal of a brown stain in driveway where equipment was loaded. Jason was prompt, efficient, knowledgeable, friendly and professional.

When the first plumber from Bedell came out he correctly determined that the water heater needed replacing but did not check the water reducing valve. He also had me concerned about the wood platform that the water heater was sitting on since it was wet. Bedell sent out another plumber, Patrick, who assured me that the platform was fine and would support the heater. Patrick completed the installation of the water heater, the heat expansion tank, and the pressure reducing valve that evening. He did an excellent job from what I could tell. The price seemed a little high, but since the tank was a 75 gal tank and including the labor, this was probably a fair price.
Description of Work: My water heater began leaking. I called Bedell Plumbing and they came out the same day. They determined that I needed a new water heater because the water pressure was too high and caused the current heater to leak. They also recommended a heat expansion tank which should have been installed by the builder. They had a new water heater in their warehouse and they installed the new one with a heat expansion tank that day. They also determined that my pressure reducing valve was not working properly and they replaced that.

Bedell advertises that their phones are answered 24 hours a day. I called in the evening, probably around 8 pm to set up an appointment for the follwowing day. No one answered when I called and I did not leave a message as I planned to call in the morning. However about 5-10 minutes later I received a call back anyway. I was pretty impressed they took the time to do that. He was able to schedule someone to be in first thing the following morning and advised the approximate cost to have the drain snaked. We had called since the drain to our washer had been overflowing when the washer was draining. We had asked to have the drain cleared, but after a quick inspection the rep advised he did not think it was clogged, but that the drain was the wrong size. As the drain is in the basement he was quick to help us out with a cheaper option than tearing out the concrete floor. He was able to widen the top of the drain which has solved the problem for the moment. This fix was only a bit more than the snaking which had been quoted over the phone and has fixed the problem.

The utility location man arrived around 8:30 and marked all of the pertinent utilities. The men arrived shortly after this. A backhoe was used to dig approx 6 ft to locate the sewer pipe. Once this was found a backflow preventer was connected and the hole was backfilled. The earth was wet clay, so the backfill job was not clean. it was left mounded up in big clumps. Not much else they could do with the wetness of the clay. The backhoe left minor ruts in the ground. no attempt was made to fix these. While the backflow preventer work was going on other men were breaking the concrete floor in the lower level. Then they dug a hole. There was no gravel between the concrete and the dirt. They removed the clay and concrete and hauled this to their truck. Then they installed the sump and its pump. Once complete they leveled it up, installed the top and final piping and then poured concrete to fill the hole they dug. The last thing they did was to cap an old water pipe from an old well. This had been leaking into the basement. Hopefully all of this will render us a dry basement.
Description of Work: They installed a backflow preventor/sump pump to prevent sewer water from coming into the house during high rain conditions. Work was performed professionally. House was kept clean because they laid tarps down where they walked. All of the work was completed in one day. What I don't know is how well this is going to work. We have not had a rain occurrence since it was installed. If it works I am a very happy camper. The lead on the job indicated that he has installed this system on many homes with much worse conditions than mine and it has worked very well. I have my fingers crossed.

See above. The whole thing started with a high water bill, but I saw no water. Next, I joined Angie's list after water company came out and said I had a leak somewhere and needed a plumber. Called Bedell and they sent out a plumber who stated I had a leak under the concrete and needed American Leak Detect next to pinpoint where it was under the concrete slab. They came out same day and found it under the front bedroom floor on the north wall area. Bedell Plumbing worked me in their schedule the next afternoon and came out in the cold rain. Horrible job lasted up into late eve., approximately 8:30. Then, had to come back to get the water on. Gravel in pipe. Came back on Monday and put gravel back in hole in bedroom and poured concrete to fix hole in floor. Also, came back following day to wash mud off street and sidewalks. They were consistent and right on it, thus I would hire them again if ever need. Nice people to deal with.
Description of Work: Diagnosed leak under concrete where water enters the home from the main under the front bedroom floor. American Leak Detect located where it was in the home. Crew arrived in afternoon of next day with backhoe, etc. and started digging in front yard and on the North side of the house. First attempt from the street did not work so then used backhoe up next to front corner of house and dug down to the pipe under the foundation. Jackhammered the concrete floor in the bedroom to reach the leak under the floor where the pipe came through. Put in new connection and fixed leak. Later, put gravel back in hole in floor and poured concrete for patch. Waiting for concrete to totally dry before having carpet men in to put the pad and carpet back down. The men worked up after dark to dig out the problem and fix it in cold misty rain. Hard workers and were here several hours. Promised to fix again at no cost if fails again. Expensive project, but had to be done. Next, carpet and housecleaning. Insurance would only pay for inside work, outside was mine and that was the major expense. They were good about waiting a few days for their money, now paid. Good people.

I was concerned about keeping some decorative elements that I still wanted included in the new bathroom. Jay worked with me to maintain them and also guided me to sources that helped me make decisions about new tile, cabinetry, and granite. It's dramatic looking and I love the results. A very cooperative effort which went quite smoothly thanks to the personnel and the expertise at Bedell Plumbing.
